Casa Revuelta
The emotional favorite for Fried Salt Cod is definitely Casa Labra which has been open since 1860 but the piled-up platter served production line style breaks and steams the cod you get at the bottom of the platter. Newcomer Casa Revuelta (1966) serves even fatter pieces each lovingly set on the service platter. Your heart might be with Labra but your palette will be with Revuelta. Try both.

La Oreja De Jaime
Oreja is not for everyone but Madrileños are crazy for their pigs' ears. And if you love ear you are in luck that the two most famous places are one in front of the other. Many celebrate Casa Toni maybe because you really get a pure ear. At Oreja de Jaime the ear is crispier and beautifully seasoned - a bit of potato helps it go down smooth. Think "elevated" ear.

Noor
Noor explores the cuisine of Al-Andalus (or medieval Muslim Spain), which has a major impact on modern Andalusian gastronomy. Through three tasting menus of different lengths, chef Paco Morales presents dishes packed with Moorish influences. One of his missions is to rediscover and reinterpret centuries-old ingredients and artisan techniques - pistachios, goat's milk, bitter oranges, turmeric, and coriander, and carob instead of chocolate, all with an avant-garde approach At Noor, which means "light" in Arabic, contemporary dishes are created using historic recipes researched by Morales. The Arabic theme also runs through the restaurant's design and décor.
